Vertrekkende van research en bronnen over de figuur van de huisvrouw in de jaren 1940 en 1950 hebben de auteurs de vraag behandeld waarom de huisvrouw zo een problematische figuur is geweest in de feministische debatten sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Het boek onderzoek waarom in de jaren 1940 huishoudelijk werk geassocieerd werd met eentonig en slaafs werk en behandelt de manier waarop magazines en reclame probeerden een natuurlijk verband te leggen tussen vrouwen en de huishoudelijke sfeer, terwijl later de films van de jaren 1950 de voortdurend veranderende grenzen tussen sociale, familiale en individuele verlangens en beperkingen van vrouwen in huis verkenden. De auteurs onderzoeken ook hoe het huis een plaats van verveling geweest is en wat er gebeurd met het evenwicht tussen werk en familie in de moderne wereld.

Was there a women’s movement in the thirteenth century and is such a question meaningful in its medieval context? Far from being resolved, the issue of whether women had a thirteenth-century renaissance has still decisively to unsettle the periodization of Western European history in twelfth and sixteenth-century humanist renaissances. Herbert Grundmann long ago demonstrated the participation of women in the eremitically-inspired reforming movements of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, and in the production of vernacular literature. Yet it is upon his work that this volume builds, for the diocese of Liège is the key area in this development. It was from Liège that Jacques de Vitry approached the papacy to secure permission for the women of the bishopric of Liège, France and Germany to live together and to promote holiness in each other by mutual example. The seventeen contributors to this volume examine not only the beguine religious life in the southern Low Countries, but also the impact of this movement on later medieval Sweden, England and France, the new modes of influence exerted by women in their religious lives, and the revivals of feminine spirituality in the late medieval West through to contemporary North America. Research does not yet allow for a whole new synthesis, but this volume directs scholars to detailed work on specific localities and persons, with an awareness of the problems and possibilities of wider European comparisons.

In this themed collection by literary, historical and archaeological scholars, the study of medieval women is confidently and freshly mainstream. Profiting from the development of newly flexible models of gender, literacy, the political, the social, and the domestic, the volume is non-separatist, exploratory both of new source materials and new readings of established sources, and able to consider the broadest implications for the study of medieval culture without simply re-absorbing medieval women into invisibility. Grouped under the headings of matters of reading, of conduct and place, the essays move from legal cases to actual buildings and conceptions of the household, from conduct books to chronicles and romances, from saints’ lives to the medieval unconscious and back again, exemplifying the mature interdisciplinarity of current work on medieval women.
